boo at the zoo

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo hosts Boo at the Zoo which allows children to trick or treat in a fun and safe environment with lots of animals to enjoy on the way.  The set up was perfect.  Companies sponsored booths and handed out candy or crackers to all the children.  Madison loved all the fun stations.  She even started holding her bag up for the candy.

This is the first year we have enjoyed trick or treating and too our benefit were able to ask for the crackers more than the candy.  Ben and I both expressed how nice this year will be compared to next year when she KNOWS she is only getting the crackers.  Enjoy the control while you can I guess.  That's not to say she still didn't have 20 pieces of candy which dutifully Daddy and Mommy enjoyed as well. 

Our little TinkerBell and Giraffe were hits.  Most people commented on how adorable Madison was (well....yes, I know ;)  She had the sparkles, the dress, the wings and even a cute little wand. 

Our little Giraffe was snoozing most of the time.  He enjoyed the peaceful hum of the crowd until the end, when milk needs became more important. 

Having these memories makes me excited for our little family.  I can't explain just how perfect life feels with these two munchkins and a wonderful husband to celebrate these miracles with.  I say this over and over but truly, we are blessed!

~  I mean look at little giraffe Carson.  How does your heart not melt over that cutest!!

On the go.  I had to try and curl her hair while she squirmed and get the costume on while she was climbing!

She never forgets to love on her brother!

Waiting in line for Boo at the Zoo!!

Just enjoying a Butterfingers

Carousel ride with Daddy

Madison was scared.  I mean really scared of anything or anyone that she could not see there face.  This was a common theme, head in Daddy's arms.

Oh, but no fear here!

This is little man saying "MILK!!!!"
